A TILT IN THE COMMONS.

LONDON. March 3.-In the commons to-
night Dillon, commenting on the vote of
ESQ, 600 for the Irish police. pointed out
that the claim was in addition to e62. 500
already voted for extra pay and travelling
expenses The greater portion Of this
money had been spent in endeavoring to
suppress public meetings and carrying on
the work OF eviction. The government had
avoided indicating the sums spent on evc-
tions. If the English people knew how
their money was spent they would rise in
rebellion against such system. He was
informed that the costs of the Woodford
evlctionS amounted to e1, 800, while the
total amount in dispute between the land
lold and tenant was only e25. No amount
OF expenditure would ever suppress the
plan OF campaign or public meetings He
warned the government that meetings
would continue, and if bloodshed should
follow the crime would be On the head of

been accused of not denouncing crimes in

tended that the expenditures for the Irish
police were necessary to maintain order.
While agitators like Dillon and his friends
melted the people to resist the law the DO
lice expenditures were necessarily greater.
The plan OF campaign for which Dillon was
largely responsible was mere organized
system OF robbery [cheers]. Dillon ap-
pealed to the chair, asking if the express
sion was justitiable. The chairman replied
that the expression did not impute robbery
to the member. Sir Michael, continuing,

Gently refused to believe Dillon's own state

He protested against the doctrine of resist

that if the law is not altered as he (Dillon)
